Mondot - Saint-Émilion Grand Cru - Red - 2021 - 3000 ml :

 

MONDOT: The Elegant Introduction to Troplong Mondot

The MONDOT is the superb second wine from Château Troplong Mondot, one of Saint-Émilion's esteemed Premier Grand Cru Classé estates. It captures the essence of the Château's elevated, pure limestone terroir, delivering a wine of great concentration and poise. Under the estate's renewed focus, MONDOT provides an accessible yet profound taste of the property’s style, showcasing a beautifully chiselled mineral structure alongside the rich, dark fruit typical of the Right Bank.

Tasting Notes & Wine Characteristics

• Colour: Deep, vibrant garnet.
• Nose: Highly expressive, offering a blend of concentrated dark berries (damson, blackcurrant) and elegant tertiary notes of tobacco, truffle, and baking spice. The signature chalky note from the plateau is clearly present.
• Palate: Generous and full, with a plush texture that coats the mouth. The tannins are silky but firm, providing a backbone for extended aging. It culminates in a fresh, mineral-laced finish that speaks of its noble origins.

Food Matching & Service

A wine of this calibre is perfect for a special occasion. We recommend decanting this bottle for 60 minutes and serving it alongside traditional British fare with an opulent twist, ideally at 16-18°C.

• Food Matches: Classic Sunday Roast Beef with all the trimmings, Venison Haunch with Juniper Sauce, Mature Farmhouse Cheddar.
